Global Plastics Outlook: Plastic leakage to the environment - projections (Edition 2022)

OECD Environment Statistics 2023

Summary

This dataset presents OECD projections for global plastic leakage into the environment from 2019 to 2060 under baseline and policy scenarios, covering both microplastics and macroplastics. The projections show that without strong policy action, the amount of plastic entering environments where it fragments into microplastics will continue to grow substantially.

This dataset presents baseline and policy scenario projections for plastic leakage to the environment, at the global level for the 2019-2060 period. The dataset provides projections for microplastics, macroplastics and the total leakage.
